Solution

The correct option is B Mitochondria
The DNA is present in the nucleus of the cells and the organelles like the mitochondria and chloroplast. The mitochondria is the self-replicating organelle which contains its own DNA. If the nucleus from the eukaryotic cells is removed, then the DNA can be still found in the cell in the mitochondria.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
